My OpenBSD laptop, iwn(4), doesn't roam between my two access points.
It's a sorry sight when it struggles to push a signal through the
rebar floor instead of switching over to the other access point a
meter away.
Is this a limitation of OpenBSD's WLAN support or should I blame
the access points? (Two stupid consumer APs with the same SSID and
on the same network segment.)
Searching for WLAN roaming leads to vague references to IEEE 802.11f,
but it's unclear to me whether this is required for roaming or just
intended to improve it.
Roaming is done by the client. This is an OpenBSD issue. It needs
the relevant support in the drivers and 802.11 layer.
